Likud Yeshans: Government Caught Itself at Last Minute

Members of the Likud Central Committee who live in Judea and Samaria praised the government, Friday, for submitting its request to the Supreme Court to defer the uprooting of the Ulpana (religious girls' high school) neighborhood in the Binyamin-region Jewish community of Beit El, scheduled for next week. The committee members said, "The government caught itself at the last moment and prevented unnecessary political suicide."
